Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
Yes I can hear a BIG difference in my system. FYI, I've owned many 6 figure systems using MIT and other brands over the years. I could afford to not be frugal:O) My current system, although very humble compared to the plethora of reference compone... 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
Well Hasse, did you ever wonder why most cables are so unpredictable? The cable company would have you believe that your system is to blame or is inferior. Wires are wires and will vary by their materials and construction, which are not always tha... 
Transparent or Nordost?
Whatever you do, DO NOT get a pair of MIT Matrix HD60 speaker cables for trial...you will be SOOOOO disappointed with anything else:O) They move music reproduction in the home so close to reality that you will need a box of Depends...but don't wor... 
Harbeth SHL5 for Shindo Montille?

Best preamplifier, amplifier for B&W 800 Diamond
Dan D'Agostino's Momentum Monos or stereo with matching preamp or an ARC LS26 preamp. 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
When I have tried SR cables I hear frequency alterations and colorations. Extra added smoothness and reduced tonal complexity for example. MIT cables sound more like the muicians are in my room:O) I get 100% trade in value when I move up the food ... 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
I told you so guy's...this SR thread reads like minutes from a cult meeting! It's voodoo cablenomics:O)
